Yesterday I shared the projects that I created using the April Paper Pumpkin kit and you heard that I had to change the colors that I used with the kit. Trading out ink pads for stamping on the white tags was no trouble at all and frankly, changing the Calypso Coral die cut pieces to Real Red was no trouble either! For this week's Five on Friday installment, I am sharing the "five minute fix" that allowed me to to easily "convert" from the coral to the red!
As you just saw, the fix was simply a matter of using my brayer to layer the Real Red ink right onto the die cut images. Originally I was thinking I would lay the hear piueces directly on the ink pad to do the re-coloring and it dawned on me that it would be way too messy! The brayer was a much better option!
Of course, I also realized there was an even easier way to go...
Leaving the die cuts within the large piece meant less mess and rolling around while adding the color!
This "five minute fix" would certainly not work for everything, however, it definitely worked for this project! When else can you imagine using this technique? Please leave a comment to let everyone know!
